Blue Cubes

The drop rate of cubes is too low. Two of us have done the complete spawn and not gotten them. I've only received one during a non orc phase.

I was writing this while waiting on the next spawn. I was the only one there. I used one toon and killed stuff till I got a cube. A couple more players popped in. I switched toons and no cube for that guy. Orc level over so I left.

I go there twice a day since Deceit. Iv'e gotten 8 total cubes since then. I always take two toons. I've only gotten two cubes once. That was this AM. So, only 5 cubes over the other two weeks.

So its fine to get them 1/3 of the time? Im going by how few you have vs days its been out. They were made as a participation reward. You should get one each spawn if you stay till the end.

I totally agree with this. Otherwise, once you've got your talisman there is no reason at all to stay and help kill the boss. As tough as he is, it's very hard to get enough people together to kill him.

Just taking a stab in the dark here:

Maybe they are trying to control the flow of them some. Maybe they have it coded to where X number of them drop the counter does not reset to allow the drop of them until the boss is killed?

This was my only criticism of the event. After getting the main reward and a cube or two there really wasn't much incentive to keep at it. Had fun though.

I have 4 walls so far. Need 1 or 3 more. Drop rate sux. I've done over 50 spawns with 2 toons each. So thats 20 of 100 to get cubes.

I like the way ppl who have done <5 think they can determine the drop %. :dunce:

I just hate how they release ''mysterious'' things without more information, tired of the latest poor patch notes. This doesn't give players the desire to do that mysterious content, when there is no infos about it.

When it drops it says a short wall went into your pack. There is no mystery.

Mysterious fragments in treasure maps did not have any content related until patchs later, when they decided to buff their drop rate by 5x, they were later introduced to battles shrines.

So you think the blue cubes are meant to be wall in houses ?, hmm not so sure about that ... i think it is just a bug with the tool to make walls out of them, it wouldnt have the name ''cube'' if it was meant to be a wall

When you get one it does not say a mysterious cube has been placed in your pack. It says a short wall has been placed in your pack.
They gave us time to collect the mysterious fragments. They would sink into the ground at a shrine before shrine battles. So, if cubes do something they would be doing it now.

Nope. I think its for some future thing. Would be worth collecting few at he least.

Could be a bug though since they are just a re-hued graphic. Maybe not.

You do know they are literally short walls right? When you turn them they make all the short wall shapes. The texture is a rough short wall.

If they didnt have such a crap drop rate they could make more colors later and we would have more wall options for deco.

I think the cube is related to the fiction and Fellowship storyline:

Batlin sat down and took a deep breath. He unwrapped a perfect cube carved in Blackrock. Then he extinguished the candle and waited in the darkness.

According to Kyronix just now at the meet and greet, they are purely decorative...but when pressed further about if they would have a future role, he said..."If it did, I wouldn't divulge that now, it'd be a surprise"

*Dum dum dum....*

Thinking maybe possibly..Involve taming somehow..To allow you to re-stat messed up pets..or turn a pet's color to blue? Or..When clicked a new clicky pet will pop out or something..Or it will pop a saddle, so you can ride a Triceratops..Or..Or..Just continue to be a functionless little square deco..Who knows..Keep on guessing, and wishful thinking of course. :violin:
